This summer, Mercedes-Benz will begin offering its 382-hp CL 550 with standard 4Matic all-wheel drive - the first time any large Mercedes coupe will get such a feature.
Giving the CL greater traction - and therefore better low-grip handling - the coupe's permanent 4Matic all-wheel drive system helps the CL appeal to snow-belt drivers by splitting torque between the front and rear axles at a 45/55 ratio. The CL's center differential uses a twin-plate clutch to manage the torque distribution between the front and rear axles.
